4a.the great engineer Tanaka Hisashige, founder of the company that would eventually become TOSHIBA, actually started his career in the early 19th century as a maker or Karakuri dolls.

4b. First of all, I was very surprised that CEO of TOSHIBA had started maker of Karakuri dolls before started company of car. The reason why Japanese traditional culture is very famous for foreign countries, I think Japanese fingers are so skillful. Then Japanese is good at well to treat machine or dolls.

5.Robots, car and machine are so important things for Japan. Especially, Japanese traditional Karakuri dolls isn't imitated by foreign people. Because there are delicate body and zestful in doll. But Japanese traditional culture or thing is disappearing now. So we have to protect forever.
